I am not familiar with those headphones, but I suspect that the TP30 will bring out the best in any headphones.

I can just say from experience with my Grado SR80i (32 ohm impedance). I have the TP30 connected to my MacPro via USB and I use it to output sound to 4 ohm bookshelf Mission speakers. It sounds great and has enough power for my needs in the office - casual movie watching and listening to some flac encoded music. Obviously it is not a home theater grade, but it sounds clear and loud enough when needed. Same with the headphones - I listen at 50 % of the volume level and haven't noticed distortion or noise in the frequency's range. So far it has been exceeding my expectations considering build quality and performance for the price paid. No regrets, I would recommend it.

I'm using it with my Sony MDR-V6 and the sound is truly amazing. they can get quite loud, but these headphones are really easy to drive. I also have a couple of old and cheap speakers and it has enough volume to normal listening, only if you are in the same room or sitting in front of them. it doesn't have enough power to drive anything bigger.

Absolutely. The frequency response, even at low levels, is pretty amazing for this price level. I can't justify paying more for any headphone unless you're an extremely discriminating audiophile using high end equipment. They're just great little headphones.

I would give it a solid "decent". I believe I was expecting better, and looked for something else. In the course of trying more expensive Sennheiser, B&W;, Beats models, I came to feel the less than perfect isolation was way more than offset by everything else. Audio quality is fabulous and so is the design and fit and finish. Let me know how you go on this. Ed

I am using Philips X1, which is 30 Ohms. It has more than enough power for my taste. I'm not sure if a 250 Ohm headphone would work, without an amp.

the bass is very good. but the volume isn't up to par, I'd like them to be louder. I've been looking, the Beats Studio Wireless Over-Ear Headphone. are loud enough but not sure that is the sound that I'd be looking for. I own a pair of V-Moda m 100's and love them. only if they'd make a bt headphones.

Sorry I can;t really help you out there, I have never used the Beyerdynamic's DT-770. I would be interested in hearing your input on the H6. The ones I had really stunk. I'm beginning to wonder if they were defective, and they never tested them. Seems pretty lame for B&O; to not test them. I can't imagine anyone using them for anything beyond a door stop.

The Beyerdynamic web site shows 250 ohm. See the linked spec sheet. All I know is these cans are hard to drive. I finally broke down and bought a Beyerdynamic A1 amp to push these. Its not the volume that is the problem; its power needed to push these cans to accurate resolution. These are much more finicky than my AKGs or Sennheiser headphones.http://north-america.beyerdynamic.com/shop/media//datenblaetter/DAT_T90_EN.pdf

I have several pairs of headphones but not the Senns. I do have a big head and big ears and I find the DT 880 very comfortable.

I don't have these particular headphones, but I have been able to use the device with everything I've tried, including headphones. Just follow the pairing instructions.

Hi. Mine pair works in stereo (that is separate sound in both ears) just fine. Sounds like a faulty headphone to me.

From their website: What headphones does Valhalla work best with?Beyer 600 ohm models and Sennheiser 300 ohm headphones are best-think high-impedance when you're thinking about Valhalla. Yes, we have plenty of people using Valhalla with low-impedance headphones, but the best match is with high-impedance cans.So yes.

the unit pairs with my jawbone icon, I believe it will work with your headphones as well

I have the 250 ohms as I drive them with a headphone amplifierso in short it depends what you plug them into ie Iphone which doesn`t have enough power to drivethe 250 ohms.For example "The 32 ohm model is a good option for those who wish to use this headphone while they are mobile or paired with devices such as laptops, iPods, MP3 players, tablets, etc"

I use them with my iphone and my ipod and I think they are outstanding. Im no expert but I can compare them to 3 pairs of other headphones Ive used - Sonys, Bose, Audio Technicas, and I recommend them highly. Love them.

Pairing a replacement base or headphone set is not difficult. I believe the 160/170 models are compatible but contact Sennheiser directly to be sure.

I don't use the DAC for headphone listening, I have the HA-501 amplifier for that. I did test the DAC for you and, Yes it can drive 600 ohms headphones. I have the Beyer DT990 (600 ohms), for normal listening I did set the volume between the -17dB and -15dB and, For my HD700 (150 0hms) I did set it between -31dB and -26dB based on the music.
